Sito web dedicato all'immagine della donna nella letteratura gotica anglofona dal romanticismo all'epoca contemporanea facente parte del Gender, Literature, and Art Index a cura di Kathrin Nichols, Pittsburgh University

This website was dedicated to British Gothic drama and its various manifestations between 1768 - the year of composition of the first Gothic tragedy, Horace Walpole's The Mysterious Mother- and the later, pre-Victorian, culture of the 1820s and 30s. The materials made available here range from critical bibliographies to links to internet resources and teaching and study aids, and are offered as a starting-point for all those readers who wish to explore Gothic drama and theatre in order to rediscover a cultural phenomenon which, although now relatively unfamiliar to contemporary readers, was as notorious, shocking and frightening as the better-known Gothic romance. This website is no longer updated.

The Burney Society honours Frances Burney d'Arblay (1752-1840), a woman who recorded everything from Johnsonian wit to George III's fits, from Evelina's entrance into the world to Napoleon's last stand. Her acute observations about her family, friends, and 18th-century society show us how much, and how little, life and literature have changed in two centuries.

The Keats-Shelley Association of America (K-SAA) emerged from a coalition of scholars, critics, bibliophiles, editors, students, teachers - all engaged with the brilliant accomplishments of Keats and Shelley and, more practically, working to purchase and endow the maintenance of the Keats House in Rome and provide ongoing care of the poets' graves in Rome's Protestant Cemetery. In 1949 the American Committee was incorporated as the Keats-Shelley Association of America.
